Question

Assuming text will be read in Arial 12 Point font, and that the average subject be a literate male who reads an average volume of text (newspaper, magazine and book print + digital mutlimedia) in his lifetime.

Answer 1

He'd be dead... what would he be reading?

Answer 2

I'll give you an answer if you'll tell me what you propose to do with the information.

Answer 3

wow. useless fact. I cannot find any sort of info that would lead me to a conclusion, nor do i believe that it would hold true as an average, I know alot of people who dont like to read and alot of people that do...maybe someday we will have implants in our heads that record everything, including sights and sounds perhaps then we will have an answer to your all important ;) question :)
